Microgaming - €0.20 NL (6 max) - Holdem - 4 players
Hand converted by PokerTracker 4

SB: 105.2 BB (VPIP: 28.30, PFR: 24.53, 3Bet Preflop: 12.00, Hands: 54)
BB: 148.75 BB (VPIP: 22.22, PFR: 16.67, 3Bet Preflop: 5.71, Hands: 90)
CO: 126 BB (VPIP: 25.88, PFR: 24.71, 3Bet Preflop: 12.12, Hands: 90)
Hero (BTN): 100 BB

SB posts SB 0.5 BB, BB posts BB 1 BB

Pre Flop: (pot: 1.5 BB) Hero has A♣ Q♥

CO raises to 2.5 BB, Hero raises to 7 BB, fold, fold, CO raises to 17.5 BB, Hero calls 10.5 BB

Flop: (36.5 BB, 2 players) K♠ Q♣ A♦
CO bets 25 BB, Hero calls 25 BB

Turn: (86.5 BB, 2 players) 8♥
CO bets 57.5 BB, fold

CO wins 139.7 BB

This is very shitty spot, villain is aggressive reg and we had pretty aggressive dynamics as well, because of that I was thinking in preflop that we can 3b for value and call easily his 4bet, however villain's bets on the flop and the river seems so strong (QQ+,AK) that I ended up to fold. Thoughts?

Hi,

if you're betting AQ it should be to shove, calling a 4b with it is probably not going to be the most EV, esp if you make folds like this.

You are quite likely at the absolute top of your range, which contains enough top pairs I'd assume to maybe fold some of them, not sure what else you'd flat the 4b with. Yes villain could have only AA, KK, QQ, AK...they could also have Ax, Kx, and random cards that 4b. We don't know, which is why we shouldn't fold the top of our range.
